Just ahead of the upcoming sequel, Twisters, the original Twister starring Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton gets a 4K release for the very first time.
It’s a wonder of nature, baby, as Twister is FINALLY getting a 4K Ultra HD release. The disc arrives on July 9th (just ahead of Twisters July 19th release) with a 4K remaster overseen by director Jan de Bont himself. Plus, there’s even a new bonus feature for fans to check out.
Don’t breathe! Don’t look back! Just run for your life when a destructive force of nature comes howling straight toward you, destroying everything in its path – when you’re running from a Twister. Academy Award winner Helen Hunt stars as Dr. Jo Thornton-Harding, who as a small girl watched her father sucked to his death from her family’s storm cellar by a massive tornado. Now a storm chaser, a scientist who risks her life to study the dark side of nature by taking her data-transmitting instruments directly into the path of a deadly storm, Jo chases the largest tornado ever to strike Oklahoma as her marriage implodes and rival scientists will stop at nothing to steal her breakthrough.
